Harrison - The mullet is back

Defenders Fan Zhiyi and Craig Harrison are very likely to return to the Crystal Palace side when Crewe Alexandra visit Selhurst Park on Saturday. Both players have been out for quite a while with injuries and/or suspension.

Chinese international Fan Zhiyi has been out with a hamstrng injury for a few months now but he has been training all week.

Craig Harrison suffered from a shoulder injury but also had to miss a couple of games because of a suspension.

New signing Aki Riihilahti is set to make his debut at Selhurst Park on Saturday. The Palace faithful will be hoping he can repeat the performance he showed against England last weekend.

Hayden Mullins is suspended and Belgian defender Kenny Verhoene could start on the bench on Saturday.

Also today, Crystal Palace have announced that all under 16's will be allowed to attend Tuesday's re-arranged game against Huddersfield Town for just £1.

The reduced price tickets must be purchased before the day of the game.
